The Stranger With Blue Eyes

When a stranger reaches out, it isn't always comforting.

Poetry
Horror


he says
you’re the type of girl
that gets murdered
my friend gasps
what a terrible thing to say!
but he knows
he pulls my hand to his face
holds it there
remember me
he says
remember me when
you fall
when they take you
think of me then
i will
i say
i will
